Family Experience of Dementia
Dementia not only affects the person presented with the diagnosis, but their family and friends too. This is facilitated through a series of activities and reflective prompts. This book provides practitioners with strategies to support the whole family and understand their dementia journey both pre- and post-diagnosis.
The reflective questions allow readers to become actively engaged to maximise their knowledge and understanding, and to better contextualize what the dementia experience feels like for family and friends.With There is also a dedicated chapter offering structured exercises for health and social care practitioners and students.The book introduces the Lawrence family, where Peter has been diagnosed with dementia, and provides perspectives from each family member, allowing practitioners to become acquainted with the lived experience of everyone involved.
